KB SSL Enforcer: Enhanced Security for Chrome

"KB SSL Enforcer" is a Chrome extension developed by KB IT that automatically enforces the use of Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption on sites that support it, providing an added layer of security and privacy to your browsing experience. It detects SSL support on your first visit to a page and enforces all subsequent visits to run on SSL. Notably effective on insecure networks, the extension also features SSL support caching and flexible override options. It's open source and respects incognito mode.
